Arsenal lead Champions Matchday line

Riding high in Group F, Arsenal FC lead the latest issue of Champions Matchday. The official magazine of the UEFA Champions League sits down with Arsène Wenger to discuss the unique qualities needed to make it as a manager and exclusively interviews centre-back Laurent Koscielny on his growing influence on the team and rapport with Per Mertesacker.

In his first interview since arriving at FC Barcelona, Brazil forward Neymar speaks about how he has adapted since his big summer move. "I have chosen a marvellous club to play for – they have welcomed me with open arms," he tells Champions Matchday.

The latest edition also carries interviews with two of the best young goalkeepers in the UEFA Champions League: Club Atlético de Madrid's Thibaut Courtois and Bayer 04 Leverkusen's Bernd Leno. FC Schalke 04 starlet Julian Draxler explains how he knew he could never be a defender, FC Shakhtar Donetsk's Brazilian striker Luiz Adriano reflects on his life and times, and Javier Saviola – now inspiring Olympiacos FC – looks back on his UEFA Champions League career.
